Temperature Sensor System

The CheMin tem­per­a­ture sen­sor sys­tem main­ly con­sists of a demand-ori­ent­ed num­ber of ther­mo­cou­ples. These are usu­al­ly installed on the out­side of heat exchang­er sur­faces that are not in con­tact with flue gas — occa­sion­al­ly also tem­porar­i­ly on sur­faces that are in con­tact with flue gas. The instal­la­tion takes place dur­ing a plant shut­down. With the CheMin sen­sor sys­tem, both absolute tem­per­a­tures and tem­per­a­ture dif­fer­ences can be record­ed, and can be con­vert­ed into the amount of heat extract­ed by means of modelling.

Due to the high mea­sure­ment sen­si­tiv­i­ty of our sen­sor tech­nol­o­gy, we can per­form a wide range of appli­ca­tions includ­ing, for exam­ple, the opti­mi­sa­tion of the fir­ing sys­tem. To do this the decou­pled heat quan­ti­ty is record­ed in a spa­tial­ly resolved man­ner and the sig­nal is imple­ment­ed in the con­trol mod­ules. Through opti­mi­sa­tion mea­sures (for exam­ple by chang­ing the air dis­tri­b­u­tion), an even heat extrac­tion can be achieved at all radi­a­tion sur­faces. Oth­er exam­ples of use include opti­mis­ing online clean­ing, increas­ing the effi­cien­cy of SNCR tech­nol­o­gy and mon­i­tor­ing refrac­to­ry systems.

In addi­tion to its use in steam gen­er­a­tors, the CheMin tem­per­a­ture sen­sor tech­nol­o­gy is also suit­able for detect­ing heat trans­port in pipes, heat coat­ing in tanks and heat absorp­tion and release in heat stor­age tanks.
